The Alamo
June 14, 2018
We got into town late last night, and thankfully the dark shades in our room kept the kids asleep until 8:15am.
Just a quick trip around the corner to see The Alamo! The grounds were even more beautiful than I remember.

Book Review: The Year of Less đ
June 10, 2018I saw this book just before its publication around the first of the year. I loved the description: a millennialâs shopping fast and how it lead to independence and a detachment from materialism.
I shouldâve looked closer, because as it turned out, it was a memoir with detachment being part of the narrative. It was a fine book, but I didnât connect with much of the material because of the feminine focus.
I will say that Iâm inspired to do my own shopping ban, declutter my life, and live more simply. If youâre into memoirs or are a woman, you will love and relate to this book.

We moved Felicity into a big kid bed two weeks ago. My favorite part of the move is that when she wakes up in the morning, she doesnât immediately go and empty her dresser. Instead, she grabs a book, climbs back into bed, and looks at it quietly.
